Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 676 A Gentleman's Friendship!

"Welcome to the new issue of "Asian Filmmakers"!"

Meng Lan was wearing a cheongsam, standing in the darkness, with only a beam of light coming down obliquely from above, the picture was very eerie and terrifying.

"The mainland film market is booming, and in recent years, many films have started with a box office of one billion. Today, the filmmaker from the mainland we interviewed has not made a film with a box office of less than one billion. What's more, he won the box office last year Bringing a movie with a box office of more than 6000 billion Hong Kong dollars, conquered hundreds of millions of viewers, and sold [-] million box office in Xiangjiang, becoming the first Asian movie to break into the top [-] box office in the world."

"So without further ado, I believe many viewers have already guessed this guest! Let us invite Li Zhifan to come on stage!"

After Menglan finished speaking, the lights of the entire recording studio turned on one by one.

Li Zhifan appeared on her left side. It turned out that he had been standing next to Roland the whole time.

Behind the two, the four of Zeng Yuanjiang clapped their hands while laughing, and Zeng Yuanjiang even whistled.

"Hi everyone, I'm Li Zhifan. I'm very glad to come to Xiangjiang again to participate in Sister Meng's program!"

Li Zhifan had his hands behind his back, and it was completely different from the usual shows in the mainland. He didn't feel like a star at all, just like a primary school student.

This is not a person who set him up, but a feeling that appears involuntarily in such an environment.

Because there are no audiences at the scene, only a few cameras and a few directors, to be honest, it feels awkward to record the show like this, but after adapting to the rhythm, it will feel very natural, especially when Menglan is talking, it is really awkward. It's like chatting and talking, without the atmosphere of a variety show at all.

Comparing those variety shows in China, Li Zhifan felt that one was using too much force, and the other was not working hard at all.

Mainland talk show hosts are very good at creating atmosphere, because there are audiences below, even if it is a one-on-one interview program, they will amplify their voices for the broadcast effect, and their eyebrows are beaming.

Ke Menglan is different. I don't know what the hosts of other Hong Kong programs are like, but for her, it seems that this is an ordinary job, and she can't help but reveal a kind of calm when she speaks.

Except for Zeng Yuanjiang who was more lively among the last four people, the other three were very reserved.

During the interview, the four of them sat across a triangular table with Li Zhifan and Meng Lan.

Questions about movies, about actors, and what they are particularly interested in is Li Zhifan's first movie "Baby Project", because this is a Hong Kong-style movie shot in Hong Kong, so they are more friendly and have more Have something to talk about.

"Now the mainland entertainment industry has really entered a golden age. There is a lot of money that can be used to make movies. Every year, there are endless excellent movies in the mainland!"

Liu Chang was emotional, and suddenly changed the subject, "When I entered the industry, I didn't think I could be an actor at all. I really just wanted to find an ordinary job when I entered TVB. But I had a friend at that time, everyone We all know each other, his name is Liang Haisheng, haha, he is now a great director, but his movie dream has been there since he was a child. We came to TVB together after graduation. I will accompany him to take the actor class first. I just wait outside That's all, I didn't expect to meet Master Shao Wen, but Liang Haisheng, who was interviewing inside, was rejected, but I, who was outside the door, entered the actor training class."

This story is no longer news. Although Liu Chang is not a particularly advanced actor, every time he tells this story, he is very happy to tell it.

This is the feeling after pretending to be forced.

Although Liang Haisheng's status is now like a god, the story back then is enough for Liu Chang to pretend for a lifetime.

Liu Chang told this story in order to attract Li Zhifan, and he immediately asked Li Zhifan: "Xiao Li, tell me about your anecdotes when you entered the industry! I think this experience must be very precious, and it is what the audience wants. knew."

"me!"

Li Zhifan smiled, "I'm actually not as amazing as you. Friends in the mainland may know it, because my information is available online. As for me, I graduated from a forestry university. I plant trees and flowers. To put it bluntly, I am a gardener."

He purposely stated that his starting point was very low, and then he started to brew: "At that time, I was an intern in college, and my family found a relationship and sent me to the district art troupe. I was originally doing logistics work, but because I have always liked music, I also learned I have been playing the piano for several years, and I started to create my own music in that atmosphere. I didn’t have any ideas at the time, I just hoped to stay in the group, work hard, marry a wife and have children.”

"The luckiest thing in this era is the existence of the Internet. After I shared my work on the Internet, it attracted a lot of likes from my friends. This is something I never expected, let alone Director Liao Feng took a fancy to me. Let me do the theme song for his movie "Black and White World", this is my first step into the industry."

Li Zhifan said lightly, "And then, hehe, by chance, I had a cameo role in Director Liao's movie, and he beat Zeng Yaobo at that time, you all lost, right?"

He cast his eyes on the four of them, mainly at Zeng Yuanjiang.

Seeing Li Zhifan's eyes, Zeng Yuanjiang waved his hands again and again: "Hey, I don't know him. Although my surname is also Zeng, it's different, different!"

Menglan didn't really want to discuss Zeng Yaobo, so she changed the subject and said, "Well, so to speak, you, Zhifan, entered the industry because you seized the opportunity, coupled with your own talent, to achieve today's achievements, but I didn't expect You actually came from the forestry department, and you were a musician at the beginning, you didn't expect to achieve such a big achievement in the movie, what a genius!"

"The key point is that he has only been in the industry for about five years!"

Zeng Yuanjiang said, "I know a lot of friends from the mainland. When I entered the industry for five years, I was still playing supporting roles. I didn't expect you to be a director of tens of billions. How do you coordinate the movie? I have done it too. Director, but messed up, because the work of on-site coordination is really not something everyone can do, so I admire those directors who make good movies more."

"I don't think it's too difficult!"

Li Zhifan said, "Because I have a strong desire to control, especially on the set, everyone has to listen to me. I demand that the filming be completed in one day, and it cannot be delayed until the next day. I cannot change myself because of individual people. You are even more awesome than me, sorry, please get out!"

"Overbearing, overbearing!"

Ruan Lanlan and Song Ningning clapped their hands crazily. Li Zhifan's words stirred up their female hormones, as if they saw an unrivaled hero, and the man in their hearts wanted to be so domineering.

"Hehe, I'm still a gentle person in private!"

Li Zhifan smiled, "Work is work, life is life!"

The entire program lasted 10 minutes. At the end of the program, Li Zhifan promoted "Langya Bang" which will be broadcast on Jade Channel, and then it was Say-Goodbye!
"Hurry up, go record the next one!"

As soon as Li Zhifan got up, Zeng Yuanjiang dragged him to the outside of the recording studio, "I've already made arrangements over there, and I'm just waiting for you!"

"Uh..." Li Zhifan still wanted to say, don't you want to take a break?
But seeing Zeng Yuanjiang's urgency, he walked along with him.

In the process of recording just now, the two had already lost, and they also found some empathetic topics.

That's why Li Zhifan didn't dislike Zeng Yuanjiang's behavior.

I thought it was another talk show, but I didn't expect Zeng Yuanjiang to host an indoor game variety show called "Super Award Winner".

The stage here is much bigger than the one next door, it is about the size of a football field, and there are several lounges.

There were quite a few staff members pushing back and forth the hanger trolley full of clothes. From this point of view, TVB is not particularly picky. It seems that there is a change of clothes this time.

"Come here! Zhifan, let me introduce you!"

Zeng Yuanjiang pulled him with a smile, and came to a beautiful woman, "This is my daughter and the producer of this show, hahaha, you two know each other, let's get in touch!"

"that……"

Li Zhifan leaned close to Zeng Yuanjiang's ear and whispered, "Brother Zeng, I'm married!"

"What are you thinking about, kid?"

Zeng Yuanjiang raised his voice and shouted, "My daughter and child are eight years old, I mean to let you get familiar with it, remember to give her a hand when you have a chance!"

As he said that, Zeng Yuanjiang's face became serious for a second, and his voice was lowered, and his tone brought out the sensibility of a father: "I have nothing to ask for in this life. It's just a daughter like her. I hope she can be well and take care of her. Get to know more friends in the circle, and if I go there one day in the future, she can do a good job in this circle."

Li Zhifan was taken aback for a while, and nodded after listening to Zeng Yuanjiang's words: "Brother Zeng, don't worry, although it's the first time we met and knew each other on the first day, your words reminded me of mine. Father, don't worry, if you have the ability to help me, you will definitely help, if our niece encounters any difficulties, come to the mainland to find me in the future, and I promise to solve it for her!"

"Uh-huh?"

Zeng Yuanjiang nodded first, then looked at Li Zhifan hesitantly, and after realizing it, he laughed and cursed: "You boy, you are taking advantage of my daughter, forget it, I will recognize you as a little brother, as for your seniority, you can see for yourself." Do it, I don't get involved."

"Got it!"

Li Zhifan couldn't help but laugh too. You've said that, so shouldn't I be a cheap uncle?

This show hosted by Zeng Yuanjiang was too noisy, a lot of people came out on the hula la stage, they were all stars, they were all familiar with TVB. The main character is matched.

This show is recorded and broadcast, and it takes a short break after recording a section. Like the variety shows in the mainland, sometimes halfway through the recording, it feels wrong, so it has to be interrupted, and the host, guests and the program team gather together to discuss.

Li Zhifan still hadn't read the script, and only found out what game to play during the discussion.

Of course, it wasn't that the show crew deliberately wanted to trick him, but that they were already used to this kind of atmosphere, and what they wanted was a sense of reality.

And everyone is very busy, there is no time to walk the stage, rehearsal and so on.

There is no time to prepare the lines and routines for the guests, so that the guests can memorize them in advance.

During this break, several TVB female artists tried their best to get close to Li Zhifan.

An actress named Huang Xin is good at playing silly girls and bad girls in TVB dramas, and she has played the heroine with such a person. The key is that her figure is really the most proud of TVB, which is why she can play in TVB dramas This is a proud capital that cannot fall down.

Another actress also sharpened her head and went to Li Zhifan's side. She and Huang Xin took turns taking pictures with Li Zhifan with their mobile phones, and then secretly plundered him, giving him all kinds of hints.

Li Zhifan evaded cleverly several times, and even pretended that he didn't know anything.

And the reason why he didn't want to expose it was that these actresses were not only treating Li Zhifan, they also treated Zeng Yuanjiang the same way, but Zeng Yuanjiang had some fun in it, and the salty pig hands stroked the waists of several actresses from time to time , buttocks, and occasionally deliberately rubbing against their pride.

His daughter seemed to be used to his father's appearance, and Zeng Yuanjiang had been divorced for many years, so she was calm and even unresponsive when she saw these scenes.

……

night.

After recording two programs in a row, Li Zhifan suspended his work, but he couldn't go back to the hotel to rest, but had to go to a dinner party.

Liao Feng was the one who invited him to the banquet, and of course many other insiders were also invited, including Chen Jiujiu and Chen Yilei.

Although the Qilixiang restaurant jointly opened by Li Zhifan and Liao Feng also has two branches in Xiangjiang, they still chose a higher-end place for their gathering.

8 Finance Street, Central, 4th Floor, Four Seasons Hotel.

Longjingxuan.

For a long time, this was the only three-star Chinese restaurant in the world.

Later, when 8 restaurants in Macau and Tang Court in Xiangjiang were awarded three stars, this period of history was rewritten, but the influence and status of Lung King Heen in the food industry has never changed.

Lung King Heen specializes in Hong Kong-style Chinese food, and many delicacies are actually found on the menus of ordinary tea restaurants.

But to be rated as the first three-star Chinese restaurant, the delicious food and the chef's cooking skills are all top-notch.

Li Zhifan and Zeng Yuanjiang came together, and he was not invited at first, but they hit it off right away today, so Li Zhifan notified Liao Feng to add a seat, and told him that Zeng Yuanjiang was coming.

Liao Feng and Zeng Yuanjiang are two completely different attributes in Xiangjiang entertainment circle.

Zeng Yuanjiang is the kind of big-mouthed, high-profile, old-timer in the entertainment industry with a quack air. He doesn't seem to have any particularly classic works, but he himself is a classic in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry. When it comes to Xiangjiang stars, he must be there. a seat.

And Liao Feng is the head of the low-key faction, and he rarely shows his face in public, let alone on the show.

However, the two had cooperated several times when they were young, and they achieved a real friendship between gentlemen as light as water.

"Steamed Dumplings with Dragon Prince, BBQ Pork in Honey Sauce, Crispy Chicken, and Yang Zhi Ganlu!"

Seeing that he was a regular customer, Zeng Yuanjiang said to the waiter after he sat down, "Did they order these four items? They must order them, double servings!"

"I've ordered them all!" The waiter smiled respectfully, "Then order an extra serving!"

Zeng Yuanjiang looked at Liao Feng, laughed and said: "Brother, you will always remember my taste!"

"How could I forget?" Liao Feng said, "The celebration banquet for the first film we collaborated in back then was eaten here, do you remember?"

"Remember, remember!"

The two of them changed the topic instantly, Zeng Yuanjiang said, Liao Feng nodded in agreement, and threw everyone else aside.
